3. Which of the following is an accurate description of mitosis and meiosis? A. Meiosis produces two haploid daughter cells, whi
le mitosis produces four diploid daughter cells. B. Mitosis produces two diploid daughter cells, while meiosis produces four haploid daughter cells. C. Both processes always change the number of chromosomes. D. Both processes are always a form of sexual reproduction
The correct answer is - B. Mitosis produces two diploid daughter cells, while meiosis produces four haploid daughter cells.
The processes of mitosis and meiosis are often confused with one another, mostly because of the similarity in their names.
The mitosis is a type of cell division where the end result is two daughter cells, each of the cells has the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus. Thus is typical for the growth of tissue.
The meiosis is a type of cell division where the end result is four daughter cells, each of the cells having half the number of chromosomes of the parent nucleus. This is typical for the gametes and the plant spores.
The flexibility os DNA is what allows transcription factors at distant binding sites to do their job. The DNA loops like cooked spaghetti to bring far-off binding sites and transcription factors close to general transcription factor or mediator proteins.
